Following the recent arrest of Mr. Edet Okon Asim, Special Adviser on Forestry and Biodiversity to the Cross River State Governor, Sen. Ben Ayade over allegation of severally abusing a 15 years old girl (name withheld) sexually, a NGO, Project Alert on Violence Against Women has written to the Inspector General (IG) of Police urging him to ensure justice prevails in the matter.
According to the NGO in the letter accused Mr. Edet Okon of trying to use political contacts to mount pressure on the Police Zonal Commander, Commissioner and DPO where he is currently cooling his feet to kill the case.
